Distance and Time Measurement - How Taximeters Work

Put in simple terms, taximeters take distances and times. The taxi rates depend on the area the taxi is driving in - in other words, it might be more expensive to drive the same route or take the same amount of driving in one town than in another. Ticket prices may also vary depending on how many passengers there are in the taxi, whether the taxi operator has to help you with your luggage and whether the taxi has to pass state or local routes to get you to your destination.

All taximeters, however, independently of their location, record the taxi journey and the wait times. In this way, the rider is indemnified for the period so that he does not loose any cash just because he is caught in a jam. It is also the reason why a taxi trip from point A to point to point might be more expensive if there is transport than if there is none, even if the route taken is the same.

Taximeters use electrical impulses to determine both distances and times. In order to determine the travelled path, the measuring instrument is dependent on a transducer mounted on the gearbox of the driver's cabin. Every year the car covers a certain route, the detector emits an electrical impulse to the counter. There is a built-in internal clock which emits a signal after a certain period of use.

A taxi, for example, can calculate your ride every 100 metres (91.4 metres), but the range finder pulsates at every metre (0.9 metres). If the counter receives 100 impulses, it will add to the amount of the ticket price. Here is an example of tariffs from New York City.

Every fifth kilometre (0.3 km) you drive adds 40 cent (a fifth kilometre is four urban blocks). Each minute the taxi is sitting without movement, another 40 cent is added to the ticket price. Genuine transport situations, however, are not so easy. You' re dealing with stop-and-go transport in a classic New York taxi trip.

In order to handle stop-and-go travel, counters combine computations from both timer and proximity sensor, where they count which impulse - either timer or proximity - is first. Keep in mind that the impulses come more often than the real removal or delaying. So if you spend 30 seconds on the road and then fill two New York City streets, the taximeter will bring the two together and put 40 Cent on the fare: 20 Cent for the route and 20 Cent for the delay.
